Ingredients
  

2 cups cherry-flavored Greek yogurt

1 cup vanilla yogurt

1 cup fresh cherries, pitted and halved

1 teaspoon almond extract

1 tablespoon honey (adjust to taste)

1 cup granola

12 large cookies (chocolate chip or oatmeal for a rustic flavor)

Optional: Shredded coconut or crushed nuts for topping

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Mixture:

    In a mixing bowl, combine the cherry-flavored Greek yogurt, vanilla yogurt, almond extract, and honey. Stir until fully blended and smooth.

      Add the Cherries:

        Gently fold in the halved fresh cherries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the yogurt mixture.

          Assemble the Sandwiches:

            Take a cookie and spread a generous layer of the cherry vanilla yogurt on the flat side. Top it with another cookie, flat side down, pressing gently to form a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining cookies and yogurt mixture.

              Coat the Sandwiches:

                Once all sandwiches are assembled, roll the edges in granola to coat them. If desired, further enhance with shredded coconut or crushed nuts for added texture and flavor.

                  Freezing:

                    Place the sandwiches on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until they are firm.

                      Serve:

                        Remove from the freezer a few minutes before serving to soften slightly. Enjoy these delightful, refreshing treats on a hot day!
